This major shift is said to include the Sussex family as well as William’s cousins Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, who would be stripped of both their titles and HRH status.

According to Sykes, “The dramatic change will be effected by an executive royal order known as ‘letters patent’ ratified by Parliament in the early weeks of the reign of King William V.”

Sykes claims this order “will remove princely titles not just from Andrew but also from Beatrice, Eugenie, Harry, Archie, and Lilibet.”

Meghan and Harry’s HRH Status Set to Be Removed

Although Prince Edward and Princess Anne’s children have never used princely titles, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are still officially HRHs, even though they were asked not to use them. According to palace sources, Meghan and Harry will finally have their HRH designations removed.

“Meghan continues to use her HRH despite being ordered not to do so by the late Queen Elizabeth II,” Sykes added.

Archie, now 6, and Lilibet, 4, reside with their parents in a luxurious estate in California and have minimal ties to the British royal family or the United Kingdom.

William’s Vision Aligned with European Monarchies

If Prince William proceeds with these changes, the decision would mirror recent actions taken by other European monarchies. Denmark’s Queen Margrethe made headlines after removing royal titles from several of her grandchildren to streamline the royal family.

Reports indicate William has long admired the Danish royal model, particularly the approach of King Frederik and Queen Mary, and intends to follow a similar path for his reign.
